starbank Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Thanks for that - good read and only confirms what everyone who contributes to this forum thinks about the feisty Lupo GTi! Can't believe they are stopping production - what a waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Loop Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Gotta love the bit "The BMW M3 was one and this Lupo is number two" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altern8 Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 sorry guys but i would buy a mk1 golf every day style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdwindustries Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 ahhh but would you drive it 20,000 miles every year ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Id have to say Id rather have the Loop after owning one of each.Dont get me wrong, the mk1 is a great little car to drive... but a 20+ year old car or a present day equivilent with compfy seats, good ride, reliable engine..The mk1 was great compared to what was arrived at the time, but it is an old car now. Although, a Loop would need modding, where as a mk1 would be at its best as it left the factory... I wonder how many years it'll be before future generations are discussing weather the latest mini rocket VW is better than the Loop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris260 Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Yeah i agree with Altern8!! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> I used my cab for commuting and only took it off the road cos i want to show it next year. Although it is nice to have a car that i can drive without worrying about getting to where i'm going, but it's all part of the fun!! I did about 14,000 miles in it last year and only broke down once!I'm not dissing the lupo, i'm pleased i bought one, i'm just old school! :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
